| Description |
"Expanding Universe" -- Bill Nye for NSF50 Our universe is expanding--faster than ever. We don't know why, but Bill explains how. Credit: NSF Audio Transcript: "Hey, Bill Nye the science guy here. Tonight I'm celebrating the National Science Foundation's 50th anniversary in my back yard, and the sky is full of stars. We've always had a fascination with stars, and you probably knew that our universe has been expanding since the big bang. But here's something you might not know. The expansion of our universe is speeding up due to some unknown force. I know it sounds weird, but it's true. Astronomers supported by the NSF have discovered that our universe is getting bigger faster than anyone thought. Picture a baking loaf of raisin bread. Our galaxy is just one little raisin in the middle of a loaf which represents the universe. As the bread rises the universe gets bigger giving all the little raisins like us more space. Get it, space? Agh. I'm Bill Nye The Science Guy inviting you to join me and the National Science Foundation in celebrating fifty years of science and engineering discoveries." |
